JSP Database Access

This tutorial assumes you have good understanding on how JDBC application works. Before starting with database access through a JSP, make sure you have proper JDBC environment setup along with a database.
For more detail on how to access database using JDBC and its environment setup you can go through our JDBC Tutorial.
To start with basic concept, let us create a simple table and create few records in that table as follows:

Create Table

To create the Employees table in EMP database, use the following steps:

Step 1:

Open a Command Prompt and change to the installation directory as follows:

C:\>
C:\>cd Program Files\MySQL\bin
C:\Program Files\MySQL\bin>

Step 2:

C:\Program Files\MySQL\bin>mysql -u root -p
Enter password: ********
mysql>

Step 3:

Create the table Employee in TEST database as follows:

mysql> use TEST;
mysql> create table Employees
    (
     id int not null,
     age int not null,
     first varchar (255),
     last varchar (255)
    );
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.08 sec)
mysql>

Create Data Records

Finally you create few records in Employee table as follows:

mysql> INSERT INTO Employees VALUES (100, 18, 'Zara', 'Ali');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.05 sec)
 
mysql> INSERT INTO Employees VALUES (101, 25, 'Mahnaz', 'Fatma');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
 
mysql> INSERT INTO Employees VALUES (102, 30, 'Zaid', 'Khan');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
 
mysql> INSERT INTO Employees VALUES (103, 28, 'Sumit', 'Mittal');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
 
mysql>

SELECT Operation:

Following example shows how we can execute SQL SELECT statement using JTSL in JSP programming:

<%@ page import="java.io.*,java.util.*,java.sql.*"%>
<%@ page import="javax.servlet.http.*,javax.servlet.*" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" prefix="c"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/sql" prefix="sql"%>
 
<html>
<head>
<title>SELECT Operation</title>
</head>
<body>
 
<sql:setDataSource var="snapshot" driver="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"
     url="jdbc:mysql://localhost/TEST"
     user="root"  password="pass123"/>
 
<sql:query dataSource="${snapshot}" var="result">
SELECT * from Employees;
</sql:query>
 
<table border="1" width="100%">
<tr>
   <th>Emp ID</th>
   <th>First Name</th>
   <th>Last Name</th>
   <th>Age</th>
</tr>
<c:forEach var="row" items="${result.rows}">
<tr>
   <td><c:out value="${row.id}"/></td>
   <td><c:out value="${row.first}"/></td>
   <td><c:out value="${row.last}"/></td>
   <td><c:out value="${row.age}"/></td>
</tr>
</c:forEach>
</table>
 
</body>
</html>

Now try to access above JSP, which should display the following result:

Emp ID	First Name	Last Name	Age
100	Zara	Ali	18
101	Mahnaz	Fatma	25
102	Zaid	Khan	30
103	Sumit	Mittal	28

INSERT Operation:

Following example shows how we can execute SQL INSERT statement using JTSL in JSP programming:

<%@ page import="java.io.*,java.util.*,java.sql.*"%>
<%@ page import="javax.servlet.http.*,javax.servlet.*" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" prefix="c"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/sql" prefix="sql"%>
 
<html>
<head>
<title>JINSERT Operation</title>
</head>
<body>
 
<sql:setDataSource var="snapshot" driver="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"
     url="jdbc:mysql://localhost/TEST"
     user="root"  password="pass123"/>


<sql:update dataSource="${snapshot}" var="result">
INSERT INTO Employees VALUES (104, 2, 'Nuha', 'Ali');
</sql:update>
 
<sql:query dataSource="${snapshot}" var="result">
SELECT * from Employees;
</sql:query>
 
<table border="1" width="100%">
<tr>
   <th>Emp ID</th>
   <th>First Name</th>
   <th>Last Name</th>
   <th>Age</th>
</tr>
<c:forEach var="row" items="${result.rows}">
<tr>
   <td><c:out value="${row.id}"/></td>
   <td><c:out value="${row.first}"/></td>
   <td><c:out value="${row.last}"/></td>
   <td><c:out value="${row.age}"/></td>
</tr>
</c:forEach>
</table>
 
</body>
</html>

Now try to access above JSP, which should display the following result:

Emp ID	First Name	Last Name	Age
100	Zara	Ali	18
101	Mahnaz	Fatma	25
102	Zaid	Khan	30
103	Sumit	Mittal	28
104	Nuha	Ali	2

DELETE Operation:

Following example shows how we can execute SQL DELETE statement using JTSL in JSP programming:

<%@ page import="java.io.*,java.util.*,java.sql.*"%>
<%@ page import="javax.servlet.http.*,javax.servlet.*" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" prefix="c"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/sql" prefix="sql"%>
 
<html>
<head>
<title>DELETE Operation</title>
</head>
<body>
 
<sql:setDataSource var="snapshot" driver="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"
     url="jdbc:mysql://localhost/TEST"
     user="root"  password="pass123"/>
 
<c:set var="empId" value="103"/>
 
<sql:update dataSource="${snapshot}" var="count">
  DELETE FROM Employees WHERE Id = ?
  <sql:param value="${empId}" />
</sql:update>
 
<sql:query dataSource="${snapshot}" var="result">
   SELECT * from Employees;
</sql:query>
 
<table border="1" width="100%">
<tr>
   <th>Emp ID</th>
   <th>First Name</th>
   <th>Last Name</th>
   <th>Age</th>
</tr>
<c:forEach var="row" items="${result.rows}">
<tr>
   <td><c:out value="${row.id}"/></td>
   <td><c:out value="${row.first}"/></td>
   <td><c:out value="${row.last}"/></td>
   <td><c:out value="${row.age}"/></td>
</tr>
</c:forEach>
</table>
 
</body>
</html>

Now try to access above JSP, which should display the following result:

Emp ID	First Name	Last Name	Age
100	Zara	Ali	18
101	Mahnaz	Fatma	25
102	Zaid	Khan	30

UPDATE Operation:

Following example shows how we can execute SQL UPDATE statement using JTSL in JSP programming:

<%@ page import="java.io.*,java.util.*,java.sql.*"%>
<%@ page import="javax.servlet.http.*,javax.servlet.*" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" prefix="c"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/sql" prefix="sql"%>
 
<html>
<head>
<title>DELETE Operation</title>
</head>
<body>
 
<sql:setDataSource var="snapshot" driver="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"
     url="jdbc:mysql://localhost/TEST"
     user="root"  password="pass123"/>
 
<c:set var="empId" value="102"/>
 
<sql:update dataSource="${snapshot}" var="count">
  UPDATE Employees SET last = 'Ali'
  <sql:param value="${empId}" />
</sql:update>
 
<sql:query dataSource="${snapshot}" var="result">
   SELECT * from Employees;
</sql:query>
 
<table border="1" width="100%">
<tr>
   <th>Emp ID</th>
   <th>First Name</th>
   <th>Last Name</th>
   <th>Age</th>
</tr>
<c:forEach var="row" items="${result.rows}">
<tr>
   <td><c:out value="${row.id}"/></td>
   <td><c:out value="${row.first}"/></td>
   <td><c:out value="${row.last}"/></td>
   <td><c:out value="${row.age}"/></td>
</tr>
</c:forEach>
</table>
 
</body>
</html>

Now try to access above JSP, which should display the following result:

Emp ID	First Name	Last Name	Age
100	Zara	Ali	18
101	Mahnaz	Fatma	25
102	Zaid	Ali	30
